Makers Mark { Rachel Rose }

You know how sometimes, you see something someone made and it just says "Hello!" ...And it just looks so RIGHT to you? Well, that's how my mind responded to Brooklyn-based Rachel Rose 's creations when I came across her shop over the weekend on Etsy. The combination of these hand-created ink dot pattern explorations and the simple standard template for the shirt itself really delights me.

In other news, I worked on a little sewing project of my own this weekend, which has been a longtime dream. I am learning to make my own clothing. I have always wanted to be able to make my own clothes, because I can almost never find what I want in stores. So, I hope to share a little more about that later in the week, or next week.

Aren't they, though? They just feel so right to me. I pretty much want every single one. Luckily for my wallet, silk makes me sweat like crazy. So I won't be buying. Maybe she'll start making scarves, tho... hm.
Miss you, Mama! xx

haha. yeah, see i know what you like! i'm just not sure what it is about these that is so refreshing...it's probably a combination of things! the colors are certainly trending, the watercolor look...the simple shapes. i love them too!

soon i'll be done with my dress. it's not as pretty of a print as these shirts, but it should do in a pinch. : )
